HOLLAND, Mich., Oct. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — ESS Universal, a leading supplier of metal beds, mattresses, and accessories is delighted to announce the continuation of their groundbreaking Summer Camp Scholarship Program aimed at supporting Black, Indigenous, and People of Color [ BIPOC ] youth aged 13 – 17.
The Summer Camp Scholarship Program by ESS Universal seeks to empower underprivileged youth and break down the barriers that hinder them from accessing enriching educational and recreational experiences. The organization is excited to extend scholarships to ten deserving individuals, each valued at $1,000.00. The scholarships will enable these young participants to embark on an unforgettable journey of personal growth at various Summer Camps across North America.
“Camp Onas really got me outside of my comfort zone. Camp taught me to just try to be myself and how no one really cares how if you act silly or how you look. They also taught me that you should put others in front of you and how making a new friend can be a great thing.” – 2023 Scholarship Recipient, Age 13.
ESS Universal firmly believes that investing in BIPOC youth is an investment in the future of our society. We hope to inspire confidence, foster talent, and equip them with essential skills, including leadership development and teamwork, that will serve as a solid foundation for their future endeavors. This scholarship program aims to bridge the gap and create pathways for success that were previously out of reach for many deserving young individuals.
“We are thrilled to continue the Summer Camp Scholarship Program into Season 2 by offering ten scholarships to BIPOC youth”, said Philip Bouman, CEO of ESS Universal. “Our goal is to ensure that no young person is held back due to their socio-economic status or the color of their skin. By providing these scholarships, we hope to ignite the potential of these bright individuals and create a more inclusive and equitable society.”
ESS Universal wishes to express sincere gratitude to The Summer Camp Society for their support in facilitating the participation of 10 unique summer camps this past season.
